Additional display options for the slider

September 22, 2025
There are now two additional display options available for the hero image slider: one with link highlighting as a CTA (call-to-action) button, and one with text next to the image.

The switch to the new variants can be done by selecting the corresponding formatter in the element settings of the slider.

Hero image slider with text next to the image

This variant always displays a large image with text to the right of it in alternating order.
